Note: Mantis install is sometimes a little 'tricky' and it turns out that it works better if you first create the DB and the config file.

create mantis DB & user

mysql --user=root --password=xxxxxx mysql
mysql> create database bugtracker;
mysql> CREATE USER 'mantis'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'secret';
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON bugtracker.* TO 'mantis'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
mysql> exit

minimal mantis config

cp /var/www/html/mantis/config_inc.php.sample /var/www/html/mantis/config_inc.php
vi /var/www/html/mantis/config_inc.php

$g_db_username = "mantis";
$g_db_password = "secret";
$g_send_reset_password = OFF;
$g_validate_email = OFF;

mantis installation

http://localhost/mantis/admin/check.php
http://localhost/mantis/admin/install.php

first mantis login

http://localhost/mantis

• login : administrator
• passwd : root

customize mantis

-- IMPORTANT --
You need to configure mantis BEFORE installing CodevTT, so do it now !

• Status
• Workflow
• Thresholds

• etc.

Install CodevTT

create mysql user

(Optional: You can use the mantis user)

mysql --user=root --password=xxxxxx mysql

CREATE USER 'codevtt' IDENTIFIED BY 'secret';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON bugtracker.* TO 'codevtt' WITH GRANT OPTION;
exit

launch CodevTT install procedure

http://localhost/codevtt

The installation will create /var/www/html/codevtt/config.ini

The End.
